Youth in the confirmation program: please use the assessments for studying. On Wed, Dec. 9 we will take these assessments in class. Assessments help the pastors know what to teach and if a lesson needs some review, for the whole group. It is a tool to help us teach the Gospel and Lutheran doctrine effectively.
